Alex Chapman presents at the SASIG Conference

Alex Chapman presents on 'Social Engineering in a Digital Age' at the Spring SASIG conference on the 9th June.

As spam, spear phishing and targeted attacks become ever
more sophisticated, the need for user education, awareness and an effective
response to these attacks grows even stronger. In this talk Alex presents the
anatomy of real world attacks which use social engineering techniques to gain
access to digital assets. The attacks will range from easily-detected
mass phishing campaigns to more targeted, tailored and risky social engineering
attacks.

Throughout the talk Alex examines how these attacks work, what
exactly happens when they are successful, and how organisations can better
defend themselves against current and future attacks. He also includes some
of our own experiences and insights from performing targeted social engineering
attacks.
